They caught some of those friends of Steve who escaped from jail in Texas. Aparently it was again video footage from that great service to mankind, AMERICAS MOST WANTED that gave them away. An eye whitness last night on the news who had spotted them in a RV park said : "One guy had dyed his hair blond and wore dark sunglasses another had dyed his hair red from here (pointing to just above his own left ear) up. They looked like perfectly regular people. You'd never have guessed it was them."
So, in order to fit in in America and stay stealthy, dye your hair a funny color !

Grand Sichuan Int'l Midtown has been open for some months now @ 745 9th Ave--they just added another page of new dishes--now it has two different menu's from its sister at 24th/9th Ave--BYOB & cripy fried eel rules!!
Lupa is still one of new yorks finest--the pasta with pecorino and black pepper is so f'in yummy and the tuna belly course still stay's on my mind days later--two bottles of wine and 4 dishes cost $108 with the tax!!
just returned from my second meal at "A Salt and Battery"
112 Greenwich Ave (owned by Tea & Sympathy)--so far so great--fresh fish with a wonderful batter--have still to try the chips, mushy peas, baked beans, and deep fried beets--dont think i am ready yet for the deep fried mars bar...
Since there seems to be a lot of religious fervor in the air I want to mention that I'm doing the good Samaritan thing, not exactly, and have called a guy ('s wife actually) and told him, (or her actually) that "I found what appears to be the contents of your glovebox," behind a house I'm renovating on Rocheblave (yep, still at it), and she was so happy, although I could not initially figure out why because I assumed the paperwork I had collected meant the car had been stolen, but no, just the contents of the glovebox. The guy (and his wife?) live not far from here, I'll expose them and say they live in the 3300 block of Esplanade, which is around the corner but a completely different world, nice, in it's more affluent way, and that just makes me reflect fervently, which is my nature, on how that's one of the things here that makes the magic that people talk about (or is it just me that talks about it?), I mean the demographic striation of this place, which is scary (or that should be "fascinating"), if you pause to think about it, and what else am I going to do. Anyway, I am online with a single phone line and am realizing only now what my hesitation meant when the wife asked me could her husband call me on his way home from work at this number and I said, "yes" but not very convincingly. I knew I might be busy, what with the development of a new lethal religious product, and the delivery of this crap, which I must consider of utmost importance--cuz look at me go on about it.
Independent film maker Michael Almeryeda has just finished shooting a film in New Orleans called "Happy Here and Now," which may or may not be in theatres by the end of the year. He's another one of many who came here and got seduced by something he can't really describe so he's making a movie to try and exorcize the demon that is his awareness of that something special which is the pulsating undercurrent of life in New Orleans. With a mere million dollar budget he has a cast which includes Clarence Williams III (Linc from the old Mod Squad), Liane Balaban (up and comer), Ally Sheedy, and David Arquette.
Purportedly this will be a film wherein the "details, personalities, and images are more important than the plot itself."
In the words of Almeryeda--"There's a fair bit of declaration of place. New Orleans is definetly a character in the movie. It's a cliche that this is a magical place, but it is. The local atmosphere seems charged. I hope to capture something unrelated to the familiar postcard images we see in the movies--the voodoo, the vampires, the cemetaries, the French Quarter. I hope to capture New Orleans in a way I've never seen it on screen before--a style of living, a pleasure of life, the spirit and the people."
I applaud your effort Mr. Ameryeda, a worthy cause indeed, and I have a jealousy for your method which has you here and gone in a year's period with a story or product which may or may not ring true while I think I'm going to spend most of my life here, with the same result.
Look for this one. (Bill, the flick also includes John Sinclair, the poet with the great voice but whose work does not overwhelm me, but that you mentioned to me once because you heard about his history which includes a prison term for a small amount of marijuana, and Ernie K-Doe, and, last but certainly not least, your boy, Quintron.

Earthquake?
I think I actually felt this. I was getting ready for work this morning, at exactly the indicated time, and I registered (heard? felt? hard to say) a jolt. I thought it was something hitting the roof, having been thrown from the building next door. That does happen, but the timing was odd, and it felt different somehow. Now I know why.

can you profess to want to abolish private property and at the same time lay claim to a trademark of a name without it being paradoxical? even if you offer that name for use so long as it is not defamed in the process? i need answers people!!
Forgotten New York looks interesting in a Luc-Sante / Ken-Burns-New-York sort of way.

at eight 'o' clock up on 27th (#?) st at a hotel theater and is only $5.00. I forgot the card this am. with the address but will post it here tomorrow am. It is being hosted by Niki Carson. Remember him ? He was was a punk artist who made a portrait of Andy Warhol by putting a paintbrush in his but and sketching his likeness in reverse. It was a live sitting. The painting was included in a PUNK-ART show at the Mud Club *BUT* was stolen when the show traveled to Washington DC.

'One audio clip produced from radio waves that NASA's Cassini spacecraft detected near Jupiter was described last week by the Los Angeles Times as sounding "like a troop of howler monkeys battling underwater." '
'The waves from which the new audio clip was developed were in the thin solar wind of charged particles that fills the space between the Sun and its planets. Cassini detected the waves Jan. 1 at a distance of 10 million kilometers (6.2 million miles) from Jupiter. ' from the jpl, nasa.
